If a comment does not start on the same line as the continuation then the comment acts like a semicolon and terminates the clause.
Examples: say 'Start', /* this comment ok */ 'End' say 'Start', /* this comment ok */ 'End' say 'Start', -- this comment ok /* this comment acts as a semicolon */ 'End' say 'Start', /* this comment acts as a semicolon */ 'End' Running the above produces the following: Start End Start End Start 'End' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Start 'End' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Is this the way it is intended to work? I did not find anything in the doc that states that comments can not follow a continued line or that a comment block must start on the continued line.
